Stars & Dogs Aritzia (STAR)
Now we know why so many clothing retailers are struggling: Their customers are all shopping at Aritzia. With in-person shopping restrictions easing, sales at Aritzia’s bricks-and-mortar shops nearly doubled in its latest quarter and are now ahead of prepandemic levels, the Vancouver-based company said. Aritzia also benefited from growing demand in the United States and continuing strength in e-commerce, as overall net revenue rose 75 per cent. Now that Aritzia’s shares have gained almost 120 per cent in the past year and are trading at record levels, the stock is considered a fashion must-have.
